Nine keen good gymers arrived at Norden Farm on a mission to create a local beach for the summer holidays. Tonnes of sand were emptied using shovels, spades and hands. Teamwork made light work of the task and bags were emptied in record time! After some efficient raking the beach was covered by large plastic sheets to protect it from a cat's playground. Hopefully the giant sandpit will provide hours of digging fun for the summer play-scheme.

Four smiley GoodGymers turned up at the Community Allotment to tend to the veggies and orchard on a sunny Friday afternoon. There were lots of reasons to smile, the working week was behind us and the weekend was just starting, the weather was as summery as it gets and the bright red t-shirts added an extra vibe of cheer. We watered, planted leeks, weeded the asparagus and potato beds, weeded in the orchard and Kay even spotted our resident Robin, Mr Fluffy. Well done all, Kay, Sol, Ed and Georgeta!

Twelve enthusiastic GoodGymers set about sanding old pallets at Wessex School to re-purpose as a stage. Many hands made light work so the task was completed in record time! Fortunately there was plenty of weeding to fill the spare time. Amy won the prize for the largest weed and Ed tackled the stinging nettles. We were careful to leave the pretty cornflowers, strawberry plants and a few wild flowers for the children and bees to enjoy! A fun chatty evening!
